    This already exists as the hybrid draw. The hybrid draw could be expanded, and I would support that.

    Priced Out of Replacement Blade Knives

    Just stop using them. Replacement blade knives have to be the biggest gimmick in the industry. Buy a $8 paring knife. Takes a couple seconds to resharpen to a razor blade edge. Just resharpen instead of replacing blades. $8 once and you’re done. You don’t need to carry a big Rambo knife in...

    Tick tock is right. Wednesday looks like a winner with 11” of snow.

    Montana Mountain Goat- at wits end

    That bridge will never be fixed. They already said they’re never fixing the other bridge that went out with the previous flood. Either USFS or a private citizen will create a ford around the newly collapsed bridge. But who knows, they may never reopen the road at all.

    Sell me on a CO legal muzzleloder

    I’d even take this a step further and get a nitrided muzzleloader. A stainless muzzleloader will still rust. You can’t Cerakote the bore. But a nitrided gun even has a near corrosion proof bore. Trust me. I built one for a guy that could break an anvil, and he hasn’t been able to destroy it yet...

    Vista Outdoor announces sale of sporting ammo divisions.

    The writing was on the wall when they sold off all their firearms brands. Way to screw over your shareholders Vista.

    Gore was a good name for him.

    What’s in a bame, after all?

    Sell me on a CO legal muzzleloder

    Don’t get a Northwest, they use percussion caps. Get a regular CVA with a 209 primer. 209 primers are far superior.

    The Season of Stupid (& elk)

    $3000 towing bill is still cheaper than a guided elk hunt!

    The Season of Stupid (& elk)

    Get some low profile cable chains for the front. Better than not having chains on the front.

    Do not make sheep and goat tags once in a lifetime. Doing so would negatively impact the conservation efforts for those species.

    Best Bore sighter?

    The best option is just sitting it in sandbags, removing the bolt, and adjusting to the target. But this isn’t always an option if you’re working in your shop and need to bore sight one for a friend that doesn’t have the brainpower to do the pull the bolt method when he goes to the range (or the...

    Look how far we made it before dropping the unit number into the thread. I guess that was inevitable.

    Montana Mountain Goat- at wits end

    You came here asking for help and advice. Many people here that know that country intimately gave you solid advice. How to hunt it, ideas for access, encouragement to push onward, even literal waypoints of mature billies via PM. It is not possible that you ACTUALLY hunted this unit for 2 weeks...

    Montana Mountain Goat- at wits end

    I imagine a drop camp would be $1500 - $2500. That is far less than the expense to get to Alaska to attempt a goat hunt there. Also have y'all hunted Alaska? It's going to be harder than hunting the Absaroka's.

    Montana Mountain Goat- at wits end

    I'd offer to take him to kill a goat, but I just got back from wasting a week away from my family to help a friend with their 20+ point elk tag where on 3 occasions they refused to put in any amount of effort to kill a 360"+ bull. And by refuse to put in effort I mean refuse to walk 3/4 mile and...

    Pick up the phone and call outfitters tomorrow. Don’t throw away a goat tag. Maybe you can get them to just do a drop camp for less $ than fully guided. Who knows.
